Heavy title contenders Forbidden City FC had no mercy with Game 13′s opponents the Barbarians A and finished them off with a clear 6:0 victory. In the first half the game already went decided when Forbidden City FC scored through Jochen Tenhagen (15.), Aaron Reem (16.), Andy Williams (32.) and Ivan Lakats (37.) a clear 4:0 lead. In the second half the Barbarians still were not able to find FCFC’s goal net, while FCFC’s Philipe Healy (60.) and Blythe Fitzwilliam (73.) added one goal each to make it 6:0, the final score. A fine team effort by the table leaders as all six goals were scored by six different players.

First game in 2010 beating Russia 6-0.See when Adam’s hard work on the right helped him claim yet another assist. His beautiful cross was only slightly deflected by all four Russians defenders and a Chuar stand in Sanlitun, before it fell to Will who finished with class.And it was cold that day…
